We will meet 11/27, 12/4, and 12/11. We will then break for the holiday season.

On January 15 we will resume our regular schedule and study of Revelation in January.
College and Career Event: Nov. 30th

An almost end of semester event!
And, a sendoff for Ashton before she goes to Panama!
A little chili, grilled cheese, games, and then a study/discussion after dinner.
You can contact Pastor Matt or comment on the facebook post to ask questions or to RSVP.
Senior Fellowship Brown-Bag Lunch: Wed., Nov. 14, noon
Pie and Praise: Sunday, November 25, 7-8 PM
Pie and Praise: Sunday, November 25, 7-8 PM at the church building.
We will have a time of singing, testimonies of God’s faithfulness, prayer, and fellowship.
Please bring a pie or other dessert to share. This is a great way to get rid of any of those leftover desserts hanging around your house after Thanksgiving.
** Cancelled ** Ladies Book Club: Thursday, Nov. 8th
Ladies Book Club will NOT meet Thursday, Nov. 8.
Next meeting will be Dec. 6th at 6:30pm to finish our discussion of Augustine’s Confessions. We will meet at Susan Shirasago’s home. For details or directions please contact Maria Ettema.
UPDATE: Fellowship Meal November 4th
Please note that we WILL have a fellowship meal on Sunday, November 4th after the worship service. The previous announcement that it was cancelled was incorrect.
Please bring a main dish and one of the following: a side, a salad, or a dessert.
It is our goal for members and regular attenders to bring enough food so that any visitors to our church can stay for the fellowship meal, even if they did not bring food. A good rule of thumb is to bring enough food to feed your own family plus one guest.
Daylight Saving Time Ends Sunday November 4th
Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday November 4th at 2am.
Remember to set your clocks back one hour Saturday night before you go to bed. We are looking forward to having everyone on time and especially well-rested this coming Lord’s Day.
Teen Night: November 9th at 5:30pm
Teens are invited to gather at the Heisey home on Friday, Nov. 9th at 5:30pm for a time of food, fun, fellowship, Bible study, and discussion.
Please RSVP to Pastor Matt if you plan to attend.
